To smooth the voltage
distribution along the coil
endturn (from HV to GND)
Design Considerations
- Non-Linear V-I characters
for grading coating
- Compatible between
conducting/grading layers;
- Proper design of the length
and overlapping between
two layers;
- Solid electrical contacts
between two layers
- Mechanical fatigue stress
